Marine Energy Efficiency Calculation Excel Template
The Marine Energy Efficiency Calculation Excel Template is a standardized spreadsheet tool designed to quantify, analyze, and benchmark energy consumption and efficiency performance of marine vessels and offshore systems. It integrates regulatory requirements (e.g., IMO’s EEXI and CII frameworks), vessel-specific operational data, and fuel-to-energy conversion methodologies. The template enables ship operators, designers, and regulators to calculate key efficiency indicators, assess compliance, and identify optimization opportunities.
📖 Overview
📑 Key Components
🎯 Applications
- ✓ Regulatory compliance reporting for IMO EEXI and CII certification
- ✓ Voyage-based energy performance monitoring and optimization
- ✓ Fleet-wide energy benchmarking and retrofit investment prioritization
📐 Key Formulas
EEXI
EEXI = (gCO₂/kWh) × (P_installed / Capacity)
Calculates the attained Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index, where gCO₂/kWh is the specific CO₂ emission factor of the main engine(s), P_installed is total installed power (kW), and Capacity is reference capacity (e.g., DWT or GT)
CII Rating
CII = (Total Annual CO₂ Emissions (g)) / (Cargo Transport Work (t·nm))
Computes the annual Carbon Intensity Indicator as grams of CO₂ emitted per tonne-nautical mile, normalized by cargo-carrying capacity and distance sailed
Fuel-Specific CO₂ Emission Factor
EF_fuel = LHV_fuel × EF_mass
Derives CO₂ emissions (g/tonne fuel) using fuel’s lower heating value (LHV in MJ/kg) and mass-based emission factor (e.g., 3.114 kg CO₂/kg VLSFO)
